I finished knitting
the merino/silk “Curvy Corner Shawl”. But I haven’t written the pattern yet.

I designed and
knitted a cardigan from some Briar Rose Fibers yarn. I’m mostly pleased with
the design – especially the collar – but I’ll redesign the sleeves if I knit
this one again.

I knitted 10
pairs of socks, all of my own design. I do plan to write up patterns for at
least three of them.

I designed and knitted
a linen tunic and wore it at my 40th High School reunion. The
reunion was a blast and the sweater was a hit. I also wore it at the Wisconsin
Sheep & Wool Festival and got several requests for the pattern. So, I may
have to write that one up as well.

I re-knitted a
charming wool vest. Not my design. From commercial yarn, not handspun.

I tried my hand
at a few “firsts”:

I wove an inkle
band with some handspun wool, recently published in PLY Magazine and pictured
above. I’d woven bands before, but never with wool, and never with my handspun
yarns.

I hooked my
first rug. With handspun yarns. And it’ll be published in Spin-Off Magazine in
the 2015 Spring issue.

I travelled far
and wide to teach spinning and knitting: Alaska, Ohio, Minnesota, Wisconsin, New
Jersey, and of course Michigan.

There will not
be a resolution list for 2015. But I do plan to continue writing, spinning,
knitting, designing, weaving, rug hooking, teaching. And trying something new.
And enjoying every single minute of it.
